breakfast
Preparation and planning ahead are KEY for me to stay on track. I know my days are crazy-busy so I always have WLS-friendly foods ready to grab. I start every morning with milk (soothes the pouch) as I get ready for work. Then I grab a protein bar for breakfast, which gives me a boost in reaching my protein goal for the day. Other ideas are Fage yogurt, string cheese and almonds, or peanut butter (easy to keep at your desk).
